Warhammer 40K Introduces First Female Custodian in Adeptus Custodes Codex

Warhammer 40K fans are buzzing about the soon to be released Adeptus Custodes codex, although mostly due to a surprising new update to the faction's lore. This weekend, Games Workshop launched pre-orders for the Adeptus Custodes and Orks codexes, which come with rules updates for both factions for Warhammer 40K 's 10th Edition.

For those not familiar with the Adeptus Custodes, the army serves as the bodyguards for the functionally undead Emperor of Mankind. They are superhuman soldiers that are far more powerful than Space Marines – in fact, they are often compared to being to the Space Marines what Space Marines are to regular humans. While Warhammer 40K has revealed some of the basics of how Space Marines are made, the"making" of a Custodian is still shrouded in mystery.

While the Adeptus Custodes have traditionally been depicted as being male, there's nothing within Warhammer 40K lore that says they can't be female; as mentioned above, each Custodian is reworked at a genetic level to become a supersoldier.

You can pre-order the Adeptus Custodes Codex from Games Workshop's website and check out their full army line of miniatures.

The claim, nothing in the lore stands against female Custodians, is just wrong. Codex: Space Marines (8th. Edition): "It is known that all Custodians begin their lives as the infant sons of the noble houses of Terra.” Codex: Space Marines (9th. Edition): “Potential custodians are taken in at a very young age to better survive – no older than late infancy – and it is a great honour for those of Terran noble houses to submit a son.”
